AFC Bournemouth vs Luton Town LIVE: Premier League result, final score and reaction
Follow all the action from Vitality Stadium
Luton Town squandered a three-goal lead to lose 4-3 at Bournemouth as they blew their chance to climb out of the Premier League relegation zone.
It looked so good for Luton on an emotional night as first-half goals by Tahith Chong, Chiedozie Ogbene and Ross Barkley put them in complete control on the south coast.
Bournemouth were booed off at halftime but were stung into action immediately after the break when Dominic Solanke struck and they were level before the midway point of the second half thanks to goals by Illia Zabarnyi and Antoine Semenyo.
Luton were reeling and there was a sense of inevitability about Semenyo netting the winner in the 83rd minute.
The game was re-scheduled after the initial fixture was abandoned after 59 minutes in December when Luton captain Tom Lockyer suffered a cardiac arrest on the pitch.
Lockyer was present on Wednesday and received a standing ovation before kickoff as he met the medics who saved his life.

Morris wins a free-kick for Luton, much to Christie's displeasure. Doughty's delivery is whipped towards the back post but Bournemouth just about deal with it.

Smith wins a free-kick that Christie whips in from the right, it's headed behind by Morris for a corner that Scott this time delivers deep...but way too deep. He's got great quality Scott but wow have those corners been bad.
AFC Bournemouth vs Luton Town
Clark and Doughty have been particularly dangerous for the visitors whenever they get the chance to attack. Bournemouth just are not dealing with the issues at source. At the other end Sinisterra wins another corner but once again again it comes to precisely nothing for the home side another awful corner from Scott.

Semenya's low strike goes behind for a corner. It's cleared, recycled and Cook aims a long-range stinger at Kaminski.

From a Bournemouth point of view they're really going to have to find a way of tightening up at the back. Doughty is played in again down the left and Ogbene swings a foot at it, only for the shot to be blocked. The hosts are just being carved open when Luton transition the play.

Bournemouth, just like last time out, have it all to do but in actuality, they have been the ones asking questions. The trouble is whenever Luton go forward they look dangerous.

A Bournemouth corner finds Sinisterra unmarked but he shoots into the ground and it deflects over. That was a big chance to do something.
